$22

Movie tickets in my hood are $11.50.

That means for Jason and I to go see a movie it is $23 dollars.

$23, assuming that we get fabulous free babysitting from the grandparents and accidently bring our own food and drinks. (What, we would never! There is no way I have an actual purse that I use specifically for the movies. That would be wrong.)

Is it worth $23?

Actually, is it worth $22?

Each time we think about seeing a movie we ask ourselves this question: $22 or Red Box?

With a little patience and $1 we can see the same movie while the girls are quietly sleeping and not break any "outside food or drink" rules.

My husband and I have discovered the goodness that is Redbox! We love it! It is so easy and we don't have to worry about late fees, if we can't drop it off, another $1 does not break the bank, or cause us shame. :)

I LOVE RedBox, although by the time we actually return it...it's about $12. Still cheaper. We got out to a movie a couple of weeks ago for the first time in years. $22 for the movie and then we bought one o f those popcorn combos- $17. Are yo kidding me? $40 bucks, gone.

I discovered this week that you can text "insideredbox codes to 368266. They instantly send you a list of codes (different codes work on different machines. You plug in you promo code and viola! free redbox rental! You can do this any day you need a code. I did my first one this week and it worked. Yes, I know it's only a dollar. But now that same dollar gets me a rental for my kids and one for the hubby and I.
